Pre-courses

MATHEMATICAL ANALYSIS

Inequalities: first and second degree inequalities, fractional rational inequalities, inequalities with absolute value, irrational inequalities, systems of inequalities. Graphical inequalities. Examples and exercises.

Powers, properties. Division between polynomials, decomposition of polynomials. Notable products. Review of analytical geometry. Examples and exercises.

Elements of goniometry: the sine, cosine, tangent functions. Relationship between angles and arcs. Exponential function and logarithmic function. Examples and exercises.

INFORMATICA

The course aims to teach students the use of Microsoft Word and Excel applications, essential for their university career.

We start from the rudiments, getting familiar with the interfaces of the two software, then introducing the basic functions, ending with the more complex ones. The objective of the pre-course is to enable students to achieve mastery and autonomy, even if basic, of the two IT tools.

GEOMETRY

Introduction to systems of linear equations. Methods for solving linear systems and geometric interpretation. Examples and exercises.

PHYSICS

Physics and Measurements. Significant Figures. Scientific Notation. Vectors. Sum and Difference of Vectors. Scalar and Vector Products.

SOFTSKILLS

The theoretical and practical course aims to provide students with the basic tools to communicate clearly, effectively, and confidently, in both academic and professional contexts. Topics covered include: the main communication theories (e.g., Watzlawick's 5 Axioms), the various forms of communication (verbal, nonverbal, paraverbal), communication styles, active listening, and empathic communication.

*

La first part of the course lesson Soft Skills , lasting approximately one hour, will be dedicated to the theoretical and It can also be followed online via Microsoft Teams or from remote locations.

La second part Instead, it will be dedicated to experiential activities, exercises, and communication workshops, aimed at concretely experimenting with the tools and techniques presented during the theoretical part. Due to the interactive nature of the activities, this part will be reserved for students present at the San Marino headquarters.

Students interested in further exploring the topics covered will also be able to participate, free of charge, in the communication workshops organized at the Lodi campus, upon request and contacting the course instructor.
